This is the first major online-exclusive for hm.com since the fashion giant launched e-commerce for the US earlier this month. The Paris Show collection mixes strong tailoring with delicate dresses, and lush velvet jackets with leather pants for a modern bohemian attitude. Prices range from about $39.95 for a cotton blouse to $179.95 for a fit-and-flare skirt. Hurry, pieces are selling out already. But if you miss out this online sale, you can always shop the collection in stores beginning September 5th.

LOFT Starts A 'Pant Revolution' for Fall


LOFT Pant Revolution Press Preview

In April, LOFT hosted their Pant Revolution and Fall 2013 preview event, showcasing an extensive new collection with endless possibilities. The Pant Revolution aspect of the collection is incredible. Loft really focused on addressing issues involved with pants in regards to finding the right fit at both the hips and waist and right lengths, and still giving shoppers a variety of prints and colors to choose from - 45 to be exact.

No trouble finding pants that fit in both the hips and waist? Then try the "Marisa." Do your pants have a gap in the waistband when they fit in the hips? Try the "Julie." When your pants fit in the waist, do you wish they fit slimmer in the hips? The "Zoe" has you covered.

The collection has a sophisticated feel, while still remaining effortless and simple. The styling of the pieces gave me so many ideas on how to mix, match and I'm excited to find my perfect pant fit and explore this collection for the fall.
